Jacksons Mill Covered Bridge is a covered bridge in Bedford County, Pennsylvania, described in its record as bridge in Bedford County, Pennsylvania, United States. Pennsylvania has 231 covered bridges on record at Wayfarrow, 12 of them in Bedford County.

Status check, 2026-11: This Burr truss bridge over Brush Creek was first built in 1875. The May 1889 flood washed it about 200 ft downstream, and it was then reset in its current spot, so sources give either 1875 or 1889. Part of the span is not covered. Jacksons Mill Covered Bridge is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It stands at 39.9711° N, 78.2717° W.
